How Urban Avonside is Bringing a Lush Green Escape to Brisbane’s Skyline
Brisbane’s skyline is changing, and at the heart of this transformation is the stunning Queen’s Wharf development. One of its most exciting features—The Great Lawn—has officially opened, offering locals and visitors an inviting green space to relax, unwind, and connect. Elevated on the Level 7 podium, this lush, open area brings a much-needed touch of nature to the urban landscape, thanks to Urban Turf Solutions' Urban Avonside synthetic grass.
Bringing the Vision to Life
Designing a large-scale green space in a high-rise urban setting is no easy feat. Traditional turf wasn’t an option—keeping real grass thriving in such an environment would have required constant maintenance, irrigation, and exposure to the elements. That’s where Urban Turf Solutions came in.
Working alongside the talented landscape designers at Urbis and installation experts from Master Floors, Urban Turf Solutions helped create a space that not only looks stunning but is also sustainable, practical, and built to last.
Why Urban Avonside?
The choice of Urban Avonside synthetic turf was about more than just aesthetics—it was about creating a space that people could truly enjoy. Whether it’s families gathering for a picnic, city workers finding a peaceful retreat during their lunch break, or friends soaking in the river views, The Great Lawn needed a surface that could handle constant use while still feeling soft and natural underfoot.
Urban Avonside delivered exactly that.
✔ Durable & Resilient – Designed for high-traffic areas, ensuring the lawn stays lush and green year-round.
✔ Low-Maintenance – No watering, mowing, or chemical treatments required—just a vibrant space, always ready to enjoy.
✔ UV-Stabilised – Built for Brisbane’s climate, resisting fading and wear from the harsh sun.
✔ Soft & Inviting – A dense, high-quality yarn provides a plush feel underfoot, making it perfect for lounging and play.
✔ Sustainable Choice – Reduces water consumption and eliminates the need for pesticides or fertilisers.
A Space for Everyone
Now open to the public, The Great Lawn is already becoming a favourite gathering place in the city. From community events to quiet morning coffees, this space is about more than just landscaping—it’s about creating a place for people to come together.
At Urban Turf Solutions, we take pride in shaping beautiful, sustainable, and functional spaces, and The Great Lawn is a shining example of what’s possible when innovation meets design. Whether you're looking for a moment of peace or a place to catch up with friends, this green oasis in the sky is ready to welcome you.
